Since the mininghash is so high its too late for any solo mining now
Hello,
I want to mine a new coin, a DASH fork with AMD card or ASIC miner.
I have a wallet and could mine with setgenerate true -1. Now the difficulty and hashrate is too high for CPU mining.
The company releases that:CPU Mining
All subsequent methods require a configured mining pool account.
Attempts to solve the cryptographic equation, colloquially called mining, using a CPU (processor) are often unprofitable. In the initial phase of the existence of cryptocurrencies you can try to face other miners, especially that the power of the network (hashrate) will be relatively low. This method requires access to some mining pool. For this purpose, we can use the program
https://github.com/elmad/darkcoin-cpuminer-1.3-avx-aes/releasesAfter downloading and unpacking, the contents folder should look like this:
Different types of exe files mean different types of optimization of miners for individual processors. Select the correct file for your processor.
Create the file start.bat and enter its contents:
<minerd> -a <algorithm> -o <url> -u <username> -p <password> -t <threads>
pause
Where:
minerd = the exe file you chose to run on your processor
a = algorithm, for FuturoCoin it is X11
o = URL to your mining poole containing protocol and port
u = username, usually your public key to receive mined coins from pool
p = the password can usually be anything
t = number of threads
pause = does not close the window if errors are received
Example of a comment
minerd-avx-aes-sse2-sss3.exe -a X11 -o stratum+tcp://118.183.182.41:7901 -u fEUbiWcuJT5x4xjtUnkjbY9DdETiqorpjk -p x -t 8
pause
Run the start.bat file. On the screen you should see the effects:
GPU Mining
To start mining using the graphics card, familiarize yourself with the type of your GPU.
For AMD units, sample applications are
https://github.com/nicehash/sgminer/releaseshttps://github.com/dashminer/dashminer/releases (supports only one pool)
For NVIDIA
https://github.com/tpruvot/ccminer/releaseshttps://github.com/sp-hash/ccminer/releaseshttps://github.com/KlausT/ccminer/releasesAfter unpacking the folder should look similar to the picture:
Then open Notepad and create a configuration file. The basic configuration looks like below{“pools” : [ {
“url” : “stratum+tcp://pooladdress:7903“,
“user” : “walletaddress”,
“pass” : “x”,
“algorithm”:”darkcoin”
}
]
}
Where:
pools = specifies the list of mining pools (in the example there is one) to which you connect
url = URL address for your mining pool including protocol name and port
user = username, most often the address of FuturoCoin, for which your rewards will flow
pass = password, usually can be anything
algorithm = mining algorithm, in this case darkcoin or darkcoin-mod
Save the file under the name sgminer.conf.
Relaunch the program sgminer.exe
Your window should look similar to the example:
ASIC Mining
ASIC means Application-Specific Integrated Circuit. It is a device dedicated exclusively to work with a specific mining algorithm.
Please note that the information below may be out of date at any time. On the market today several miners are available for the X11 algorithm. Here’s a list of some of them.
I tried with conf:rpcuser=user
rpcpassword=password
server=1
listen=1
daemon=1
rpcconnect=127.0.0.1
rpcallowip=internal IP
gen=1
rpcport=9009
and then miner:sgminer.exe --kernel=darkmod -o 127.0.0.1:9009 -u user -p password
I get error:
127.0.0.1 slow/down or URL or credentials invalid
What can I do, what is the sollution for that?
GPU mining or ASIC mining.
